1
Don't ask me that.
2
James, why do you never talk about your father?
3
Don't ask me that, Emily.
4
Please.
5
Not that.
6
Wait.
7
Why are you suddenly angry?
8
I'm not angry.
9
I just don't want to talk about him.
10
Okay, but I only asked a simple question.
11
It's not a simple question for me.
12
James, your hands are shaking.
13
What happened?
14
Nothing.
15
Can we talk about something else?
16
You always do this when I mention your family.
17
Because some things are better left alone.
18
I'm not trying to hurt you.
19
I was just curious.
20
Well, now you know.
21
Don't ask about him again.
22
Fine, but why does his name affect you this much?
23
Emily, I said stop.
24
And I'm trying to understand why.
25
Because the last time I saw him, he walked away from me.
26
What do you mean, he walked away?
27
I was 12.
28
He packed a bag and left our house.
29
Oh, I didn't know that.
30
Nobody does.
31
I don't talk about it.
32
Did your mother know where he went?
33
She called everyone.
34
Nobody knew anything.
35
That must have been terrifying.
36
I kept sitting by the window waiting for his car.
37
James!
38
Every time headlights appeared, I thought it was him.
39
How long did you wait?
40
Three days.
41
Then the police came to our house.
42
The police?
43
Why?
44
They had found his car near a railway station.
45
Was he there?
46
No. The car was empty.
47
Wait.
48
Then where was your father?
49
That was the question everyone kept asking.
50
Did the police search for him?
51
For weeks, they checked hospitals and nearby towns.
52
And they found nothing?
53
Nothing that made sense.
54
James, are you saying he just disappeared?
55
That's what I believed for years.
56
You believed?
57
Something changed?
58
Yeah.
59
Six years later, I got a letter.
60
A letter from your father?
61
It had his handwriting.
62
I recognized it immediately.
63
Oh my God.
64
What did it say?
65
He said he was alive and he was sorry.
66
After six years?
67
That was all?
68
No. He said leaving us was the biggest mistake of his life.
69
Did he explain where he had been?
70
Not properly.
71
Just that he had made serious mistakes.
72
Did you write back?
73
I tore the letter in half.
74
James, why?
75
Because I remembered my mother crying every night.
76
But didn't you want answers?
77
Of course I did.
78
I wanted them every day for six years.
79
Then why throw away your only chance?
80
Because he had his chance to explain when I was 12.
81
You were still angry with him.
82
Angry?
83
Emily, I thought he was dead.
84
I'm sorry.
85
I shouldn't have pushed you.
86
No, maybe I shouldn't have shouted at you.
87
Did he ever contact you again?
88
That's the part I've never told anyone.
89
What happened?
90
He called me last week.
91
Last week?
92
After all these years?
93
Yeah.
94
I almost dropped the phone when I heard his voice.
95
What did he want?
96
He wants to meet me.
97
Are you going to see him?
98
I don't know.
99
Part of me wants every answer he owes me.
100
And the other part?
101
The other part is still 12, waiting by that window.
102
Then don't decide because he wants an answer now.
103
What would you do?
104
I'd decide when you're ready, not when he is.
105
Hmm.
106
Maybe that's what I needed to hear.
107
And James, I'm sorry for asking.
108
It's okay.
109
Just give me a little time.
110
Take as much time as you need.
111
I won't push again.
112
Thank you.
113
Maybe one day, I'll finally ask him why he left.
114
Look me in the eyes.
115
Look me in the eyes, Leo.
116
Tell me you weren't there last night.
117
Lisa, please, don't start this now.
118
I asked you a question.
119
Were you there last night?
120
Where did you hear that?
121
Don't answer my question with another question.
122
I'm not trying to avoid it.
123
Then look at me and say no.
124
Lisa it's complicated there it is you can't even say it because you've already decided I'm guilty
125
I saw your car outside that house wait you followed me no I was driving home and saw it
126
You should have called me.
127
I did, three times.
128
My phone was on silent.
129
Of course it was.
130
That's convenient.
131
Don't do that.
132
I'm trying to explain.
133
Then explain why you lied about working late.
134
I had a reason.
135
You always have a reason when you get caught.
136
That's not fair, Lisa.
137
Fair.
138
I waited for you until midnight.
139
I know, and I should have called.
140
Who lives in that house?
141
I can't tell you.
142
You can't tell me, or you don't want to?
143
I promised someone I wouldn't.
144
Wow.
145
So their secret matters more than me.
146
That's not what I said.
147
Then stop hiding behind your promise.
148
If I tell you, I'll betray someone who trusted me.
149
And if you don't, you'll lose my trust.
150
Lisa, don't make me choose like that.
151
You made the choice when you lied to me.
152
I didn't lie to hurt you.
153
A lie doesn't hurt less because you had a good reason.
154
Okay, you're right about that.
155
Then tell me whose house it was.
156
It belongs to Sarah.
157
Sarah?
158
Your old friend Sarah?
159
Yes, but this isn't what you think.
160
You told me you hadn't seen her in years.
161
I hadn't until last week.
162
Last week?
163
So this has been going on for days?
164
Nothing is going on.
165
She called me for help.
166
What kind of help requires secret visits at night?
167
Her husband left two months ago.
168
And somehow that became your problem?
169
She has a six -year -old son, Lisa.
170
I still don't understand why you had to lie.
171
Because she didn't want anyone to know what happened.
172
What happened to her?
173
She's being forced out of the house.
174
Wait, she's losing her home?
175
Yes, she hasn't paid the rent for three months.
176
So why were you there?
177
I took her some groceries and helped with the paperwork. At eleven at night?
178
I went after work.
179
It took longer than I expected.
180
And you couldn't send me one message?
181
I could have.
182
I should have.
183
Then why didn't you?
184
Because I knew you'd ask where I was.
185
So you deliberately ignored me?
186
Yes, and that was wrong.
187
Finally, an honest answer.
188
I was afraid you'd misunderstand.
189
Leo, look at what hiding it did instead.
190
I know.
191
I made it look much worse.
192
There's still something bothering me.
193
Ask me.
194
I won't avoid it this time.
195
Why did Sarah call you?
196
Because years ago, I promised her brother I'd help her if she ever needed it.
197
Her brother?
198
What does he have to do with this?
199
He was my best friend.
200
You said was.
201
What happened to him?
202
He died three years ago.
203
Oh, Leo, I didn't know.
204
Before he died, he made me promise I wouldn't abandon his family.
205
Is that why you kept Sarah's situation secret?
206
Yes.
207
She was embarrassed and begged me not to tell anyone.
208
I understand the promise.
209
I don't understand lying to me.
210
You shouldn't have to understand it.
211
I handled it badly.
212
I spent all night wondering who you were with.
213
I know, and I'm sorry I put you through that.
214
Then look me in the eyes one more time.
215
Okay, I'm looking at you.
216
Is there anything else you're hiding from me?
217
No, that's the whole truth.
218
Are you sure?
219
Yes.
220
And if Sarah needs help again, I'll tell you I'm going.
221
Good.
222
I'm not asking you to stop helping her.
223
You're not?
224
No. I'm asking you to stop making me discover the truth by accident.
225
That's fair.
226
No more secret excuses.
227
I'm still angry, Leo.
228
Trust doesn't repair itself in five minutes.
229
I understand.
230
I'll earn it back instead of asking you to forget.
231
Good, because that's the first thing you've said tonight that I completely believe.
232
I don't believe you.
233
Stop right there, Daniel.
234
Don't.. don't come any closer.
235
Emma, please.
236
Just let me explain.
237
Explain what?
238
You disappeared all night.
239
I know.
240
I know how this looks.
241
No, you don't.
242
I called you 12 times.
243
I saw the calls later.
244
I'm sorry.
245
Later?
246
Daniel, I called hospitals looking for you.
247
Wait.
248
Hospitals?
249
Yes, and then I called the police.
250
Emma, I had no idea.
251
Of course you didn't.
252
You weren't here.
253
I didn't mean to disappear.
254
Then where were you?
255
Okay, this is going to sound crazy.
256
Just tell me the truth.
257
I spent half the night chasing a taxi.
258
You what?
259
I thought my phone was incited.
260
Oh, come on, Daniel.
261
I'm serious.
262
No, I don't believe you.
263
I knew you wouldn't.
264
Because it makes no sense.
265
I know, but just let me finish.
266
Fine, go on.
267
After work, I stopped at that little cafe.
268
Wait, what cafe?
269
The one near my office.
270
You told me you were working late.
271
I was.
272
I stopped there afterwards.
273
Hmm.
274
Okay.
275
Keep going.
276
I had coffee, paid, and left. And then?
277
I got into a taxi.
278
A few minutes later, I got out.
279
Daniel, get to the point.
280
I checked my pocket, and my phone wasn't there.
281
So you called the taxi company?
282
I couldn't.
283
My phone was missing.
284
Borrow someone's phone.
285
I should have.
286
I wasn't thinking clearly.
287
Clearly.
288
Emma, please, I was panicking.
289
Fine, what did you do?
290
I saw the taxi turning down the next street.
291
Don't tell me you ran after it.
292
I did, for about a minute.
293
Oh my God, Daniel.
294
Then I stopped another taxi and followed it.
295
This is unbelievable.
296
I know how stupid it sounds.
297
Stupid?
298
I thought you were lying in a hospital somewhere.
299
I know.
300
And hearing that makes me feel terrible.
301
So where did the taxi go?
302
It stopped outside a hotel. And?
303
A woman got out, holding a phone.
304
Your phone?
305
That's what I thought.
306
What happened?
307
I ran over and said, that's my phone.
308
Please don't tell me you grabbed it.
309
No, but she got angry.
310
Why?
311
She said, what are you talking about?
312
This is mine.
313
And you believed her?
314
Not at first.
315
We argued for five minutes.
316
Oh, Daniel.
317
Then she unlocked it.
318
Wait, she unlocked your phone?
319
No, that's when I realized something was wrong.
320
What do you mean?
321
It wasn't my phone.
322
Then whose phone were you chasing?
323
Hers.
324
What?
325
What?
326
I must have picked up her phone at the cafe.
327
Hold on.
328
Then where was yours?
329
I checked my jacket again.
330
Daniel.
331
It was in the inside pocket.
332
No. No way.
333
Yeah.
334
You had your phone the whole time?
335
Apparently, yes.
336
Oh, my God.
337
I don't believe you.
338
I wouldn't believe me either. Was it even working?
339
Yes, it was just on silent.
340
Daniel, I was crying all night.
341
Emma, I'm so sorry.
342
I kept calling again and again.
343
I know.
344
Every time it went unanswered, I thought, maybe something happened.
345
Hey, look at me.
346
No, I'm still angry.
347
You have every right to be.
348
I called hospitals, Daniel.
349
Do you understand that?
350
I do now.
351
At three in the morning, I was sitting here thinking you might be dead.
352
Emma, please.
353
And now you're telling me you were chasing the wrong phone?
354
I know.
355
It sounds awful.
356
It doesn't sound awful.
357
It sounds impossible.
358
But it's true.
359
I don't know whether to shout at you or cry.
360
You can do both.
361
I deserve it.
362
This isn't funny.
363
I know.
364
Sorry.
365
Bad timing.
366
You really scared me.
367
I can see that now.
368
For one moment, I thought I'd never see you again.
369
Emma?
370
Don't.
371
Just give me a second.
372
Okay.
373
I'm angry because I care about you.
374
And I hate that I made you go through this.
375
Promise me something.
376
Anything.
377
If something like this happens again, find a way to call me.
378
I will.
379
I promise.
380
Borrow a phone, find a police officer, do anything.
381
I will.
382
You won't spend another night wondering where I am.
383
I still don't believe that ridiculous story.
384
Fair enough.
385
But I believe you didn't mean to hurt me.
386
I didn't.
387
I swear.
388
Come here, idiot.
389
I'm still angry with you.
390
I'll take that over you never speaking to me again.
391
Leave me alone.
392
Mark, open this door.
393
Why is your suitcase packed?
394
Lisa, put it down.
395
Please, leave me alone. At midnight?
396
Where are you planning to go?
397
Somewhere else.
398
That's all you need to know.
399
No, it isn't.
400
You've been acting strange for weeks.
401
Keep your voice down.
402
Mom and Dad are sleeping.
403
Then give me one good reason not to wake them.
404
Because they have enough to worry about already.
405
Mark, your hands are shaking.
406
What happened?
407
Nothing you can fix.
408
Just move away from the door.
409
I'm not moving until you tell me the truth.
410
Why can't you respect what I'm asking?
411
Because this doesn't look like someone who needs space it looks like someone running away.
412
Maybe leaving is the smartest thing I can do.
413
That sentence just made this much more serious.
414
Lisa, don't turn this into a bigger problem.
415
You packed a suitcase in the middle of the night.
416
It's already a big problem.
417
Fine.
418
You want the truth?
419
I lost my job.
420
What do you mean you lost your job?
421
They fired me three weeks ago.
422
Three weeks?
423
You leave for work every morning.
424
I sit in cafes and apply for jobs until evening.
425
So every morning you've been pretending?
426
I didn't want Mom asking questions.
427
Why hide something this important?
428
Because losing my job isn't the worst part.
429
There's more?
430
What haven't you told us?
431
Do you remember Dad's hospital bill? Of course.
432
You said insurance covered it.
433
It didn't.
434
I paid most of it.
435
How?
436
You didn't have that kind of money?
437
I borrowed $5 ,000.
438
$5 ,000?
439
From a bank?
440
No, from someone I knew.
441
Why does the way you said that worry me?
442
Because he wants the money back now.
443
How soon are we talking? By Friday.
444
He called again this morning.
445
And what happens if you can't pay?
446
He didn't exactly make it sound optional.
447
Did he threaten you?
448
Not directly, but I understood him.
449
And your solution was to disappear? here?
450
My solution was to find work somewhere else.
451
With one suitcase and no plan?
452
I have a friend in another city.
453
He said there might be work.
454
Might be is not a plan, Mark.
455
Staying here with no income isn't a plan either.
456
Then why not tell us before leaving?
457
Because Dad is still recovering and mom barely sleeps
458
so you decided to vanish
459
and make everyone panic instead i was going to leave a
460
note a note seriously mark what else was i supposed to
461
do talk to us like a family instead of making decisions for everyone
462
and tell dad his hospital treatment put me in debt No!
463
Tell him you chose to help him, and now you need help too.
464
He'll blame himself.
465
Maybe at first, but imagine how he'd feel if you disappeared.
466
That's exactly why I wanted to leave quietly.
467
Quietly doesn't mean painlessly.
468
You make it sound simple.
469
It isn't simple.
470
That's why running away won't solve it.
471
Then tell me what will.
472
First, we tell Mom and Dad what happened.
473
And after they finish yelling at me?
474
Then we look at the debt properly and decide what's actually possible.
475
You think $5 ,000 just appears somehow? no but neither does a solution
476
while you're hiding in cafes that was low lisa maybe
477
but you need to hear it i was trying you know
478
i know you were you just chose the worst possible way
479
to handle it i thought protecting everyone was my responsibility protecting us doesn't mean lying to us.
480
So what am I supposed to do with this suitcase now?
481
Unpack it.
482
You're not going anywhere tonight.
483
You really think I should stay?
484
Yes.
485
Tomorrow may be ugly, but at least we'll know what we're facing.
486
I don't know how to start that conversation.
487
Start with the truth.
488
The rest will come will you stay when i tell them i'll stay
489
but you're doing the talking fair enough i probably deserve
490
that you do now put the suitcase back all right i'm
491
staying good tomorrow we deal with the problem not run from
492
it there's someone in my hotel room excuse me um there's a serious problem with my room.
493
oh I'm sorry what happened there's already someone staying in it
494
someone was inside your room no I didn't see anyone but their stuff was everywhere oh
495
okay what room did we give you room 408 408 let me check
496
that there were two suitcases beside the bed clothes were on
497
the chair too are you sure you went into room 408
498
yes i'm sure i checked the number twice and your key card actually opened the door
499
yes that's what scares me hmm
500
that definitely shouldn't happen i'm very sorry there was even a
501
laptop on the desk someone is clearly staying there did you
502
touch anything in the room no of course not i closed the door
503
and came straight back good thank you for doing that
504
but how could my key open their room that's a serious problem you're absolutely right let me check the reservation
505
what if that guest had been inside imagine me just walking in I understand.
506
That would have been extremely uncomfortable.
507
And what if someone gets a key to my room later?
508
That worries me, too.
509
I completely understand.
510
We need to find out what happened.
511
Is room 408 supposed to be occupied?
512
According to this screen, no. It shows the room as available.
513
Well, it definitely isn't available.
514
Hmm, let me check our room access system too.
515
Wait, there's another system?
516
Yes, one handles reservations, the other controls room access.
517
And they can show different information?
518
They shouldn't, but sometimes there can be a system error.
519
Okay, what does the other one say?
520
Give me a second.
521
Sure.
522
Wait, I think I found something.
523
What?
524
What happened?
525
Room 408 was assigned yesterday.
526
It was given to Mr. Carter.
527
So there really is another guest staying there?
528
Yes, his booking is until tomorrow.
529
Then why did your first system say the room was empty?
530
Hmm, it says he checked out this morning.
531
But he obviously didn't.
532
No, it looks like he was marked as checked out by mistake.
533
And then you gave his room to me?
534
Unfortunately, yes, that's what happened.
535
Wow, so two people were given the same room?
536
Yes, and I sincerely apologize.
537
Please deactivate my key to room 408.
538
I shouldn't be able to open that door.
539
Absolutely.
540
I'm deactivating it right now.
541
Thank you.
542
And I need another room. Of course.
543
I'll find one immediately.
544
Please make sure it's actually empty this time.
545
I will.
546
I'm going to call housekeeping myself.
547
Good.
548
I'd feel much better if someone checked first.
549
One moment.
550
Hello, housekeeping?
551
Could you check room 612 for me?
552
Is that another available room?
553
Yes, but I want confirmation before giving you the key.
554
Thank you.
555
After room 408, I'd rather be sure.
556
Absolutely.
557
Okay, thank you.
558
Is everything okay?
559
Yes, room 612 is clean and completely empty.
560
Are you sure nobody is staying there?
561
Yes, I also checked it in both systems.
562
Okay, I'll take it.
563
I'm also upgrading you to a larger room.
564
There will be no extra charge.
565
Oh, thank you.
566
I appreciate that.
567
Here's your new key card, room 612.
568
And this key only opens 612, right?
569
Yes, I checked that too.
570
Good.
571
Sorry, but after what happened, I had to ask.
572
No need to apologize.
573
I completely understand.
574
All right, hopefully there are no surprise suitcases this time.
575
Definitely not.
576
And again, I'm very sorry.
577
Thank you for fixing it.
578
I'm just glad no one was inside that room.
579
Why did you charge me twice?
580
Excuse me, um, I think there's a problem with my payment.
581
Oh, okay.
582
What happened?
583
I think I was charged twice.
584
I just got two notifications.
585
Twice?
586
For the same bill?
587
Yes, both are for $64.
588
Hmm, that's strange.
589
Do you still have your receipt?
590
Yes, here it is.
591
I paid just a few minutes ago.
592
Okay, let me check the register.
593
Sure.
594
It only shows one payment here.
595
Are you sure the second charge went through?
596
i think so look at my phone hmm yeah i see two charges same amount too
597
exactly so i paid 128 for a 64 dinner wait don't worry yet one of them might be temporary
598
temporary what does that mean sometimes a failed payment still appears for a while then it disappears automatically.
599
But my first payment didn't fail.
600
The machine said it was approved.
601
Did you top your card more than once?
602
Um, yes, actually.
603
The waiter asked me to try again.
604
Oh, what happened the first time?
605
The screen froze.
606
Nothing happened for a few seconds.
607
And then you topped again?
608
Yes, the second time it said approved.
609
Hmm, that may explain it.
610
Let me check the card machine.
611
Okay, because both charges look real on my phone.
612
I understand.
613
Give me a second.
614
Sure.
615
Wait, I can see both attempts now.
616
So I really was charged twice?
617
It looks like the first payment went through.
618
The screen just didn't show it.
619
Seriously?
620
Then why did your waiter ask me to pay again?
621
He probably thought the first one failed.
622
The machine froze at the wrong moment.
623
Well, now I'm $64 short.
624
You're right.
625
I'm sorry about that.
626
Can you refund one of the payments?
627
Yes, absolutely.
628
I can do it right now.
629
How long will the refund take?
630
Usually a few business days.
631
It depends on your bank.
632
A few days?
633
I was hoping it would come back immediately.
634
I understand.
635
Unfortunately, the bank controls that part.
636
Hmm.
637
Okay.
638
As long as I know it's coming back.
639
It definitely is.
640
I'll give you a refund receipt, too.
641
Good.
642
I'd like to keep proof this time.
643
Absolutely.
644
Here you go.
645
Okay.
646
It says $64 refunded.
647
Yes, keep that until the money appears in your account.
648
I will.
649
Thank you for fixing it.
650
Of course, and I'm sorry you had to come back.
651
It's okay.
652
I'm glad I checked my phone before leaving.
653
So am I.
654
Otherwise, you might not have noticed until later.
655
Exactly.
656
That would have been a very expensive dinner.
657
Definitely more expensive than anything on our menu.
658
No kidding.
659
One dinner was enough for me.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
